(a)
To write:
The effect on the amount of substrate B formed in the case of impaired synthesis of the enzyme 3 in a metabolic pathway due to genetic disorder.
Introduction:
(b)
To write:
The effect on the amount of substrate C formed in the case of impaired synthesis of the enzyme 3 in a metabolic pathway due to genetic disorder.
Introduction:
Metabolism involves the cellular utilization of the nutrients that are absorbed into the bloodstream. The metabolic processes are related to the synthesis or storage of energy (ATP). These processes involve the breakdown (catabolism) or synthesis (anabolism) and storage of energy.
(c)
To write:
The effect on the amount of the end product formed in the case of impaired synthesis of the enzyme 3 in a metabolic pathway due to genetic disorder.
